 | The Women by Hilton Als
A series of portraits which highlights the role that sexual and racial identity played in the lives of the writer's subjects. Among them are Als's own mother, a self-described Negress who refused to be bound by the limitations of gender and race; the mother of Malcolm X, whose mixed-race background and eventual descent into madness may have contributed to her son's misogyny and racism; and Harvard-educated Dorothy Dean, who rarely identified with other blacks or women, but deeply empathized with white gay men.
